Comments:
The challenge: maximize the zones and countries (score not important).
I intended to do SB 15, but changed my mind at the last minute.
What weird condx! VP9 and some Caribbean stations were never above a whisper.
Never heard ZL or eastern VK, although there were lots with good signals in the
SSB test. Couldn't buy a VE6 in the SS CW, but they were a dime a dozen this
time. Missed Zones 22, 30, 34, 39 - never heard 'em.
The award for most consistent signal goes to SJ2W - man, he was everywhere, and
loud!
The messy pileup of callers who don't listen was worse in the last hour or so,
particularly on the newly-spotted stations. The crowd grows more unruly, and
the "Contest Code of Conduct" no longer exists. Too bad :-(
Mostly S&P, but had a few good runs on Sunday afternoon when there was
nothing new to be pounced upon.
